The Other Road

How does one then, go about justifying one’s presumptuousness which was presented as the stock premise of “being the best” (i.e. most profitable) which came about as the entry into a dialogue between like-minded (hopefully) people—because sharing what’s one interesting thing about the world is at least as good as spending it—and not necessarily exclusively as an entry into some strange world flush with Lamborghini’s and routine vacations to sun-draped oceanic backdrops, after which one lays out up front the wrong ways of what connecting the dots can look like, which naturally leads to a defining generality that says, “watch your step!”, from which a good listener can start to notice things, things that can, once overcome, become alternate avenues which may lead to the same destination—as who? Well, it’s all good sport so let’s pick on Warren Buffett.

How does one do all that?

Well one starts with a blog, whether be it from boredom or loneliness of a sort or an indecipherable mix between the two, then begins to find or tries to find interesting men like this (who by the way has almost convinced me that I ought to start to buy the world’s best metal), then keeps the pressing notion that the returns yielded by one’s models a) can be sought by investing using similar means, b) might not be that great, and c) might have as reasons behind those returns substances not in our own possession (which, by the way, should (c) be true then (b) must lose its uncertainty—the greatness we’ll try to achieve will be so much the sweeter because we, or at least I, have to bake without any sugar; and, should those be true then (a) might not be something even worth pursuing).

So be it. Now let’s pick on Warren Buffett.
